Philadelphia, PA Paid Clinical Trials

This is the study of AMT-162 in Participants with SOD1-ALS and is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and exploratory efficacy of intrathecally administered gene therapy AMT-162. AMT-162-001 is a Phase 1/2, multi-center, single ascending dose study. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to see if 18F-fluciclovine (Axumin®) PET imaging is useful and safe in the management of children with High Grade Gliomas. Investigators seek to determine if this imaging will help doctors tell the difference between tumor growth (progression) and other tumor changes that can occur after treatment. Read Less

The Childhood Cancer Predisposition Study (CCPS) is a multi-center, longitudinal, observational study that will collect clinical and biological data and specimens from children with a cancer predisposition syndromes (CPS) and their relatives. The central hypothesis is that studying individuals at high risk for childhood cancer creates a unique opportunity for improving the understanding of carcinogenesis, tumor surveillance, early detection, and cancer prevention, which will collectively contribute to improving care and outcomes for pediatric patients with cancer and those with cancer predisposition syndromes (CPS).

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects approximately 26 million Americans and disproportionately manifests in specific race and ethnic groups. Patients burdened with CKD have significant morbidity and reduced life expectancy. In addition to excessive suffering and lost productivity, the cost of managing this epidemic has reached $40 billion annually. The recognition that CKD is a major public health problem is reflected in the fourteen objectives outlined in Healthy People 2020 to begin to address the disease burden. Advancement in approaches to halt CKD progression has been slow despite growing global awareness of disease burden. This O'Brien Kidney Research Core will create opportunities for novel insights through characterization of tissue profiles that will define new disease markers and molecular pathways and will be available to all kidney investigators on the www. It will thereby fundamentally alter the starting point for research into prevention of progression of these kidney diseases. C-PROBE is an essential element of the center grant and presents a biomedical resource core consisting of: (1) clinical phenotyping (that is, systematic identification of observable physical and biomedical characteristics) of kidney disease patients including the accurate measurement of kidney function; and (2) a specimen BioBank which will store blood, urine and kidney tissue samples. A key component of C-PROBE is therefore that it contains a proven mechanism to collect samples from high risk groups including minorities, at the institutions of University of Michigan Health System, St. John Hospital, Wayne State University in Michigan, John H. Stroger Hospital in Illinois, Temple University Health System in Pennsylvania, and Levine Children's Hospital in North Carolina. This mechanism will feed the other Cores and provide biomedical investigators with approved projects the access to a dynamic pool of well characterized high risk kidney disease patients and their biological specimens to conduct high caliber translational research.

This is a dose-escalation and dose-expansion Phase 1/2a trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of DB-1303/BNT323 in subjects with advanced solid tumors that express HER2. Read Less

This Phase 1 dose escalation trial will assess the safety and preliminary efficacy of a single dose intravenous infusion of RP-A601 in high-risk adult patients with PKP2-ACM. Read Less

The goal of the observational study is to learn how black and white patients with solid tumor cancer use cannabis, opioids and tobacco. The investigators are using momentary ecological assessment through a smart phone app and surveys to assess patient-reported pain and other symptoms as to inform clinical practice and guidelines for underrepresented populations.

The SMR Stemless Reverse is intended for total, primary shoulder joint replacement by reducing pain and restoring shoulder articular mobility function. This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, controlled trial to demonstrate non-inferiority of the SMR Stemless Reverse to the SMR Reverse Shoulder System. Patients with joint dysfunction who continue to experience significant symptoms despite an appropriate course of non-operative management are eligible. Patients will be considered enrolled into the study when an ICF has been signed, all inclusion criteria are met and no exclusion criteria are present including intraoperative exclusion criteria, and the patient is randomized into either the SMR Stemless Reverse (investigational) group, the SMR Reverse Shoulder System (control) group or is part of the roll-in population. Enrollment is expected to take approximately 24 months. Read Less

The objective of this study is to assess the implementation process for and the effectiveness of a quality improvement (QI) strategy to increase shared decision-making around anesthesia options for hip fracture surgery at 6 US hospitals. The QI strategy is to be facilitated by a clinician-administered 1-page bedside conversation aid designed to improve the quality of physician-patient communication, paired with brief clinician training. The evaluation will occur via a stepped wedge, cluster randomized trial to be carried out over a period of 27 months. Read Less

This is a Phase 2, open-label, single-arm, single stage, single-institution study, with an initial safety run-in period. Potential participants with relapsed/refractory myeloma who are undergoing standard of care, commercially-available BCMA-directed CAR T cell therapy may be identified pre-CAR T cell infusion but are not consented and enrolled until at least 4-6 weeks after CAR T cell infusion, once recovered from acute toxicities. Note: the lymphodepleting chemotherapy and CAR T cell therapy is being administered as part of standard clinical practice and is not considered part of this protocol. Alternative lymphodepleting regimens other than fludarabine and cyclophosphamide (eg in the setting of fludarabine shortages) are acceptable. Cevostamab will be given as an IV infusion once every 3 weeks, starting roughly 10 weeks (day 70 +/- 4 days) post-CAR T cell infusion, with subjects planned to receive 8 cycles initially. Aiming to assess the impact of cevostamab consolidation post-BCMA CAR T cell therapy on rate of MRD-negative complete remission (CR) at 12 months. Read Less

This single-cohort, prospective case series is designed to evaluate and characterize the use of Axoguard HA+ Nerve Protector™ to protect the ulnar nerve in a first revision cubital tunnel decompression procedure. Data on the primary cubital tunnel syndrome decompression, first revision decompression utilizing Axoguard HA+ Nerve Protector, participant-reported pain, motor and sensory functional outcomes, quality of life (QoL) outcomes, and recurrence/revision will be collected. This case series will help to establish the ability of Axoguard HA+ Nerve Protector to provide clinical benefits for patients undergoing a first revision cubital tunnel decompression procedure.

INSIGHTS is a registry research study that collects key information on medical history for girls and women with Turner syndrome and the clinical care they receive. This includes genetic tests, imaging, medications, and more for hundreds of patients seen at a number of clinics across the US. In addition to learning a lot about the current state of health for individuals with TS, INSIGHTS serves as an infrastructure to conduct future studies are meaningful to patients and their families.
